My costume in the show is a gray school uniform—no makeup allowed—so it feels like a real treat every time there’s a reason to go all out.”

Stuart [Vevers] and I have the same soft spot for these little talismans, so I was obsessed with this charm bracelet. It felt like something I’d hoarded and loved for years.”

I felt totally myself in this look and well-equipped for all the fun of cheering on our director, finding and harassing my cast mates, and hearing moving speeches from people in the moment that their dreams were coming true.”
